Default Clutch Replacement Options

I am looking for the best stock clutch replacement to put back in my wifes 98 12v. What do yall suggest?? I would put an upgraded clutch but since she is pulling her horse trailer alot i dont think she would be able to get under a trailer or back one up very well. thanks guys i appreciate it.

southbend OFe would be good but they can be kinda grabby and a bitch to back up especially with a trailer. If you call southbend and talk to Peter he could probably set ya up with something. actually a low disc pressure double disc might be your best bet...DD3250

is there anything that makes the luk clutches any better than the oem clutches?? the guy at the transmission shop suggested using a luk a couple weeks ago. a luk pro gold i think is maybe what he said. but ive never dealt with anything but southbends and the wife always complained trying to back my truck under a trailer when i ran trucks with southbends. but then again i was running dual disks in all my previous trucks too...

I dont really know, the only thing i can think that might be different is the what the faces/pads are made out of...
